Soon after its formation in 2000, La Morra took the stages of Europe’s most prestigious early music festivals and concert series by storm. Based in Basle, Switzerland, the ensemble performs repertoire from the late Medieval and early Renaissance eras.

“Given the mastery of period instrumentation evident on their new release, you might think the musicians of La Morra stepped right out of the late Middle Ages...The performances on this disc are vibrantly virtuosic and the acoustics are evocative and atmospheric, conveying a spatial depth that is astounding to experience...This recording will evoke visions of a dimly lit chapel, the scent of candles and incense, and even the cold touch of stone walls that have witnessed the passing of centuries.” – www.amazon.com

“La Morra sets a new standard for performing this repertory...” – medieval.org

“To hear these pieces performed so elegantly is to be reminded why one fell in love with this music...” – Early Music
